AqME is a Metal band originating from Paris. AqME was created in the end of 1999 after the break-up of Neurosyndrom. They
were one of the founding band of Team Nowhere, along with the bands Pleymo, Enhancer and Wünjo. At the time of its
formation, AqME’s line-up was composed of ETN on drums, Ben on guitar, Sofi on bass (who will later be replaced by
Charlotte), and Koma on vocals. Six months after the formation of the band, the quartet released a five track demo known as
“University Of Nowhere”. Seing how the record sold well, the band decided to release a new version of the demo containing
three extra tracks as well as a video named TN, with the participation of Bill from Enhancer. It is at this period, when the
band starts appearing in several compilations, that Sofi left the band. She was then replaced by Charlotte.

Not very satisfied of their previous releases, the band decided to work in studio during a year in order to create their first
album. They went to record in Sweden with the Swedish producer Daniel Bergstrand, who is known for working with
Meshuggah, In Flames and Misery Loves Co.. The band then come back to France and played in concerts with other French
bands such as Unfold and Mass Hysteria. The band’s new songs attracted more people to the concerts and the band
eventually had a larger audience.

AqME’s critical aclaim occurred after the release of their first album, Sombre Efforts (French for “Dark Efforts”). They went on
a relatively big tour across France between September 2002 and October 2003, with a notable success at the “Eurokéennes
de Belfort”. « hide
